Footnotes

  1. 26 Heb “from to the faces of the Lord.” The rendering here is based on the use of “my faces” and “your faces” referring to the very “presence” of the Lord in Exod 33:14–15.
  2. 27 Heb “fell on their faces.” Many English versions and commentaries render here “shouted for joy” (e.g., ; cf. , ) or “shouted joyfully,” but the fact the people “fell on their faces” immediately afterward suggests that they were frightened as, for example, in Exod 19:16b; 20:18–21.
